'This means, like pay disparities nationwide, Dallas’ gender pay gap is widening.'
Despite the large migration of tech industry leaders to Dallas—a movement magnified by Uber’s relocation of their headquarters to Deep Ellum—recent reports suggest that the new tech jobs added are not being filled by women, and those that are don’t pay as well as the rest of the nation, or even other parts of the state.
Income after earnings has decreased as well since 2016, falling from $47,139—a number roughly $11,000 below the national average at the time—to $43,444. In a seemingly healthy housing market, this seems to suggest not a rising cost of living, but a low average salary for tech workers in DFW. “It shows that there are more tech opportunities [in Dallas],” says Smith. “We’re not seeing those go to women, and we’re not seeing women who do get those jobs being paid the same as men.”
The pay gap she suggests, is in part due to the positions that women in local tech hold, “The data scientists and software developers in general … are the positions that are highly paid,” says Bonner. “You tend to have more women in the project manager and business analyst roles … fewer women coming into the pipeline [are] women moving up into management, director, or senior leadership level.”

Report: Fax Machines Still Pretty Impressive If You Think About ItWASHINGTON—Fax machines, despite using 40-year-old technology and having come into prominence in the 1980s, are actually still pretty impressive if you think about it, a new Brookings Institute report confirmed Tuesday. “Yes, the words ‘fax machine’ evoke this arcane image of a bulky telephone apparatus that makes a dial-up modem sound, but come on, if you take a step back and think about how, with one press of a button, it’s capable of transmitting a facsimile of a document thousands of miles away over a standard telephone line, there’s no way you can’t find that slightly remarkable,” the report read in part, adding that one has to admit that even with all the technological advancements over the years, the fact that fax machines are still viable communication devices in offices around the world is “pretty damn amazing.” “People still use these things. They rely on them. It’s not uncommon for someone to say, ‘Send me a fax.’ When’s the last time you heard someone say, ‘Can I borrow your Discman?’ See what we’re saying?” The report concluded that the mere fact we’re even talking about fax machines right now should be evidence enough of how great they still are.
